Toshiba Regza 4K 3DTV

There are cutting edge TVs, and then there’s Toshiba’s Regza 55X3 (known as the ZL2 in Europe) whose spec sheet reads like it was DeLorean-ed back from 2015. The 55-inch set is one of the first consumer TVs to sport a 4096 x 2160 pixel resolution (or Quad Full High Definition), which already gives it boat loads of bragging rights, — even if 4k content for consumers is currently rarer than a Patek Philippe Calibre 89. Heaping on that pile is its glasses-free, stereoscopic 3D playback which utilizes CEVO Engine processing and advanced face-tracking technology to adjust the set’s nine-parallax viewing positions to match the position of seated viewers. The 55X3’s Achilles’ heel, however, is that 3D content can only be displayed in 720p, but it’s a sacrifice we’d personally be willing to make to ditch the rec-specs of our current set. We’re also slightly disappointed that for now, the TV will only be available in Japan starting December 10th. Then again, even if a North American ship date is announced, the predicted $10,000+ price tag isn’t the easiest thing to justify — unless you fine readers feel like mailing us some scratch-offs.

Like it or not, it's 2015: a dog at the foot of the bed and a revolver in your drawer is neither the safest nor the most sensible home security setup you can have. These seven home surveillance cameras lead the charge towards an altogether more secure and responsible home.

In 2011, Jimmy Chin climbed one of the hardest peaks in the world, Shark's Fin on Mount Meru. What's more impressive is that he filmed the adventure, then turned it into a documentary that just won big at Sundance.
